I work as a college advisor at a small non-profit that serves low-income students of color. For many of my students, they have few family members who went to college, or any of the cultural knowledge that is helpful in applying to college.
My question is: What advice would you give a high school student who has no knowledge of higher education, little family support and limited finances about applying to schools like Guilford?
(I went to a college a lot like Guilford - another "College that Changes Lives" - and I think it would be a good fit for my students, but I never know how to sell it)
